Washington Commanders Roster Moves: Colson Yankoff is back!

On January 19, 2025By Littum

The Washington Commanders are in Detroit to play the Lions tonight at 8:00 p.m. It’s been a pretty quiet and healthy week for the Commanders as they prepare for their first divisional playoff game since 2006. They sat out just one player for tonight’s game and just announced their practice squad additions and roster moves.

Rookie LB Jordan Magee was ruled out after aggravating his hamstring injury. He was placed on injured reserve today. That leaves Washington with an open roster spot, which was used to activate TE Colson Yankoff from IR. His 21-day training window opened last Wednesday and he has been a full participant in every practice over the last two weeks.

Washington also elevated CB Kevon Seymour and DE Andre Jones Jr from the practice squad for tonight’s playoff game. Seymour has been used exclusively on special teams this season. Andre Jones Jr. was elevated twice during the season and played 17 snaps on defense.

We have made the following roster moves:
